In this video I have a look at a 2016 GMC Canyon that was towed in as a crank, no start. Didn't take long to see it had a fuel delivery issue. Low and behold the salt is the cause of this no start. The fuel pump control module got a little crusty we'll say. P12A6 is the code we're going after.
-Enjoy!

I would like to I express to you my great admiration for the way you work and for the order, cleanliness and perseverance with which you run your own workshop, which I consider the standard standard for the workshop that I dream of owning one day.. my great greetings to you and my wishes for continued success, progress in your work, and happiness for you and your family...

Hey Eric, I had a 1978 International Scout II that was Ziebarted. My inner rear Quarter Panels rotted away. I used zip ties and mechanic's bailing wire to keep the outer Quarter panels from flapping. It was my understanding that to not void the warranty an annual "Inspection" had to be done near the anniversary of the procedure to maintain the warranty. The "Inspection" was to do the process again totally. The "Inspection" clause was in the fine print of the contract and most people didn't have it done. It also applied to the original purchaser only. I got my Scout in 1980 with 24,000 miles on the odometer. I kept it for 9 1/2 years and finally junked it. I enjoy all of your videos and await the next one.

Back in the late 80s, my brother-in-law bought a 1979 scout from the original owner ,who was a lifelong friend of his stepfather. The original owner had used it as a plow truck, and it actually still had the snow plow on it. It was a rust bucket when he bought it, and he attempted to do a restoration on it and put it back on the road. He started to take it apart and then lost interest in it. It sat on the farm for another 10 years, and when they tried to haul it to the junk yard, I believe the Frame broke in half. It was one of the most rusted vehicles I had ever seen in Maryland.

Back in the 1970s I was introduced to low impedance voltage testers. The brand name was Wiggy, witch is now synonymous with solenoid voltage tester from many brands. I have an Ideal brand. Works great for voltages from 90 to 600 ac/dc. Today I use a Fluke DMM that has dual impedance testing. 20M ohm and 3.5K ohm. Works great. Fluke has 3 models with this feature. The 114, 116 and the 117. I have the 116 witch has features like temperature probe, micro amp scale for measurements of flame sensor current and min/max recording witch I use to troubleshoot signals that last 1/5 of a second. Well worth the money and have never had a problem with it. I guess I should add for those new to troubleshooting, this will greatly reduce ghost voltages.

Good job Eric! Testing the control side is a little more labor to prove the faulty module. Looks like your also checking wire/connector integrity, corrosion and fitment. Your giving the customer their moneys worth. They would probably pay the same for "parts grenades" thrown by some shops wanting a quick fix to get it out the door asap but bill them again if they have to come back for the same problem.

The fuel pump driver module on my southern salt-free 2006 F-150 was rotted and the metal part of the case was actually cracked in half and deformed. I happened to notice it when I was installing some trailer wiring so I snuck a new one on there before it actually failed. It turns out that Ford decided to put the bare aluminum case of the module right against the steel frame of the truck. The aluminum against steel causes "galvanic corrosion". Some of the aftermarket ones come with stand-offs that address the Al+Steel contact issue, so I went that route ($40) rather than spending $220 on an OEM part that comes flawed from the Ford dealership.

Aluminum housings don't seem to survive long in that location.

That area gets wet and stays wet, so you've got all you need for local galvanic reactions, with the module housing representing the sacrificial anode.

F150s also have the fuel control module in the back on top of the rear axle. Even without the salt environment, as long as there is water present the aluminum housing of the FCM will exfoliate because its in contact with the steel axle (dissimilar metal corrosion). Their fix is to provide plastic isolation bushings with the new FCM to separate the two components.

We all complain about the overuse of plastics but here is an example of an enclosure that should be exactly that. Then we’d have earthing issues. 😂

Been with you since the beginning, glad to see you didn't pull a ETCG and start flashing the $$$, swag, and your keeping it the same. I did buy that flashlight you got there, I am impressed with it. Thanks. If you can ever recommend a under the hood 6' light, let me know.

i always carried fpm for our F-150's on my shop truck because they rotted out so often! Mounted right by the spare tire!

Nice diag. I was wondering why you didn't take the spare tire out and now I know. Great idea to have a spare tire you can't use and a control module that loads up with salt and fails. You will be busy for a long time.

Ford has this same issue. They mount them flat to the body behind the rear axle. The replacements come with spacers to create a drain.

14:30 don't forget the ABS module that they brilliantly put under the cab, so that when one of the worthless pot metal brake lines inevitably rots out, you can't replace it without disturbing the other ready-to-explode lines at the probably also ready-to-explode crusty ABS module.

I had older Chevy Silverado fpcm eat my lunch a couple of years ago. Used a Door man module which was supposed to be plug and play. It did start and run after installing but would cause OBD2 readiness monitors to clear every key cycle,which meant l couldn't NJ state inspect it. Tried 3 different door man modules,same result. Yeah l'm stupid that way. Finally installed GM part and flashed it. Worked great. Moral? NO DOOR MAN fpcm's in future!

My 09 Colorado has already had 2 of the modules replaced that sit above the spare tire for getting full of water and corrosion. Def stopped doing any drive thru car washes for sure

Profit security for the General. I'm surprised it made it out of warranty. The fuel pump control module turns on the " it's time to trade light" .
